San Bernardino County Sheriff Helitac Training - 11-11-10

The San Bernardino County Sheriff's Aviation Division offered the Fire Department some basic Helitac training. This will aid in rapidly removing victims that need to be hoisted to a Rescue Helicopter. On Thursday Novemebr 11th, the San Bernardino County Fire Department's ME305, ME91, BC117 and Training Captain Jim Pearson attended the training. We were given instruction on how to do a proper hover-step and also how to prepare all the rigging to hoist a patient in a litter basket. The class was very informative and has prepared us to better serve our customers.More photos can be seen here in the gallery section of FireWXphoto.com.
